Editor's Note
The Shaw Brothers studio was known for its excellent production values and commitment to quality in an era when films in Hong Kong were made quickly and cheaply. Part of the genius of the Shaw studio was the manner in which it matched up its various stars into fruitful and lasting combinations. Perhaps the most famous and successful of those combinations was the Five Venoms--Lo Meng, Sun Chien, Chiang Sheng, Kuo Choi, and Lu Feng. In FIVE KUNG FU DAREDEVIL HEROES, the Five Venoms unite to take on a corrupt military general who has murdered one of their own. The film features a great deal of acrobatic work from the team of actors, three of whom were alumni of the Peking Opera, and a plotline that involves intrigue and suspense as opposed to the usual directness of the genre. It was directed by Shaw studio veteran Cheh Chang, who was one of the leading martial arts directors of the 1970s and an influence on the later generation of filmmakers including John Woo.
